Following the April elections in Hungary, several former parliamentary representatives have transitioned into municipal roles or independent statuses. In Budapest, former representatives Ágnes Vadai and Zsolt Zsolt have taken on advisory and community programming positions within the III. and XI. districts, respectively. In Kaposvár, Péter Vörös left the Fidesz-KDNP faction to serve as an independent representative, citing a desire to prioritize local service over partisan politics.

In subsequent interim municipal elections, new leadership was established in Pásztó and Magyarmecske. Gábor Dömsödi was elected mayor of Pásztó, succeeding Attila Farkas, who resigned for health reasons. In Magyarmecske, Ernő Boár was elected mayor alongside a new four-member representative body.
